Innovations
We have two research and development laboratories at our clients' disposal - in Kiev (Ukraine) and Łódź (Poland). These are magical places where dreams about your own cosmetics turn into ready-made recipes every day.
Creative and experienced team
The R&D team consists of outstanding technologists with vast know-how and experience who constantly expand their knowledge. As a result, they are up to date with all legal requirements for placing cosmetic products on the market, as well as with modern components included in cosmetics. R&D departments work closely with our marketing specialists, who make sure that the products are in line with trends, and their marketing claims encourage even the most demanding customers to purchase.
Complex development of cosmetic recipes
Our technologists provide complex services that allow the production of cosmetics to start. Thanks to the development of several hundred recipes annually for the needs of their own brands and external customers, they are experienced in creating cosmetics for face, body and hair care, as well as bar soaps and protective lipsticks.
R&D offers cooperation during the entire cosmetic creation process, but also at selected stages:
- creating a recipe from scratch, modifying an existing recipe or selecting a recipe from our database,
- development of samples and trial series (we provide conditions corresponding to normal production),
- preparation of production and certification documentation,
- advice and opinion on the content of labels and packaging.
Development of each project is carried out reliably and with the full commitment of the team, so our clients can be sure that they will receive a product of the highest quality, meeting formal requirements and following the latest trends.
